| The CISRI has been created to investigate the role and nature of information in complex organizations and to explore new approaches and methods for modelling organizational information flow, monitoring information compliance and designing innovative semantic technologies. The intent of the institute is to act as a center of excellence and a catalyst for collaborative, interdisciplinary research in these specific areas of information science. CISRI will also promote the application of relevant research findings to practices in information and knowledge management, and human-information system design. more info. Finally, the CISRI is a key sharing platform for experts, academic & IM professionals internationally. Welcome!   DEVELOPMENT OF ISIS (Integrated Semantic Information Services)
Development of a computer application for faceted classification and search. Based on the concept of “facets,” this application integrates common information management tools such as file plans, metadata frameworks, thesauri, work processes and knowledge maps into one coherent semantic model. more info. AUTOCLASSIFICATION OF DOCUMENTS USING AN EXISTING ISIS MODEL AND STATISTICAL SUMMARIZATION STRATEGIES Statistical summarization has been an active field of research in deriving keywords from text as a means of categorization. This project extends this work by assigning goodness-of-fit scores between a document and each concept within the taxonomy by querying the taxonomy using the keyword summary.
There are a number of competing algorithms to do this that can be derived from graph theory including the assigning node score based on its distance from a keyword node or selecting the most general node which encompasses all keywords. This research concerns itself with the performance analysis of these strategies using a number of open data sets and taxonomies so that Cogniva can then decide on the best course of development for its products.
